Buzz Rankings: 5/5.

This Week, Maren Morris Was A Morning Person.

Each week, we take a survey of the local music scene and try to determine which acts in town are really putting in work and seeing it pay off. Which bands have the most intriguing shows coming up? Which bands are getting the most press around town? Which bands have accomplished the most notable feats of late? Based off these criteria, our music writers submit a list to be weighted and compiled into a master list revealed each week in this here space. We like to think it's fairly revealing. Check out our previous Buzz Rankings here.

This morning, Austin City Limits announced its lineup of big names playing this fall's two-weekend affair. At the top the list? Radiohead, about the buzziest band on the planet right now.

Scroll down a little further, though, and you'll find just one act with local ties: Maren Morris.

So, yeah, not a bad week for Ms. Morris. Good enough to top our weekly, local music power rankings for the second time, at least.

Her week was good enough, too, to prevent Leon Bridges from taking the spot for what would have been his 22nd time. Still, he had a pretty alright week himself as the subject of a new 22-minute documentary about his rise.

Cory Graves is the Associate Editor at Central Track. He enjoys not only writing about Dallas and its local music scene, but being a part of it as a member of the band Vandoliers. Courtney Love once referred to him onstage as “my fucking therapist,” which he immediately put on his resume.
